Macs or Windows

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

The only point I'm not sure of is whether it was the actual company endorsing it, or Steve Jobs, the head. Either way, it doesn't matter, and I dont' want to support somebody or some company who supports Satan. :noway:

First, if you heard that one guy in the entire factory was gay would you stop buying the product? I postitive they can't all be Satan worshipers and none of there computers come with a pop up saying, "Worship Satan" or something like that...

no, but the head of the company, or the company itself, is what matters. If Steve Jobs endorses Satan worship, he likely gives money to that church. If the company endorses it, (which would mean the board would have to vote for it) then they likely give charity to the church of Satan, much like Bill Gates and Microsoft, giving to foundations and stuff.

That is actually false, If you do some research you will find out that the church of Satan did not have permission to put the apple logo on their website, they even say that themselves. In fact Apple sued the church of Satan for having the logo on their website.

I was just about to say that...some claim that Mac supports Church of Satan because the used a picture of Anton Szandor LaVey (founder of Church of Satan) in an advertisement. If anything it's the Church of Satan that supports Apple. But definitely not the other way around...you can read all about it here.

I believe Steve Jobs is actually Lutheran. I'm not positive, but that's what I've heard...

Okay, seriously... that website gives me the creeps! I took a look around and they sound pure demonic. Don't you get this "feeling" that it's devilish even before you read any line of text?

I was too scared to look around... :bolt:

My point was just that even they are saying Mac doesn't endorse them...

Church of Satan never said they endorse Mac just that they used it to make their website and that the founder of their organization likes Mac.

I don't care that you don't want to have anything to do with it, but your statement is somewhat illogical. It's like saying that because Saddam endorsed windows you decided to never use windows again...that's rather illogical.

Who is hiding what? Apple is trying to hide the fact that they endorse the Church of Satan? That's not true. This is a pretty blank and white issue. Apple sued the Church of Satan for trademark infringement. The only thing. The only thing Apple did that might make one think the they supported Church of Satan was use a picture of their founder in an Apple advertisement. Why would they hind it if you supported them? Or did you mean something else?

I don't understand what you are saying. There are too many pronouns in that sentence and I can't figure out what you meant....but that's fine since you don't want to debate.

I just don't like it when things are said and there is no proof to support it. If Apple and Church of Satan are both saying that Apple doesn't support the Church of Satan then I don't see how anything else can be true. I didn't like that you were saying something that was obviously false which is the only reason I replied in the first place...

I read this is an article:

"Apple computers...has told the Church of Satan it does not want to be associated with it..."

How much clearer can you say it?
